WINDCRANE is a sister business division to WINDLogger, with a greater focus on construction, transportation and other heavy-duty applications, but also built with the industry-leading technology from Logic Energy. WINDCRANE comes in two versions: WINDCRANE mini and WINDCRANE max allowing it to meet the needs of a broad range of customers.

Both WINDCRANE and WINDLogger are built with high-performance and versatility in mind. The main difference between both product lines is the following:

WINDLogger focuses on versatility and customisations, adapting to the needs of any client and supporting a wide variety of sensor inputs. Conventional monitoring solutions require a tedious setup process, but not WINDLogger: it comes factory-configured for a broad range of sensors, both proprietary and from third-party manufacturers.

WINDCRANE focuses on durability and heavy-duty applications, while providing the most common weather measurement options: wind speed, wind direction and temperature. However, additional inputs are available on request. It is also a user-friendly system that comes factory-configured and minimises installation time.

For example, if you require a wind monitoring solution for scientific research, renewable energy feasibility studies, or any application with very precise requirements, WINDLogger is the best choice. On the other hand, if you need a rugged product that can be installed in a construction site, a marine port or a vehicle WINDCRANE is recommended.

WINDCRANE mini: A Plug-and-Play Monitoring Solution

WINDCRANE mini is a wind monitoring solution built with versatility in mind. The unit comes with the basic features and reliability that characterise Logic Energy monitoring systems, but with a minimalist approach to deliver a lightweight and versatile solution.

WINDCRANE mini comes with an anemometer that provides 2% accuracy from 8-200 km/h (5-125 mph), compliant with IEC 61400. A 20-m cable is provided for connection between the data logger and anemometer.

The local storage capacity if for 10 years of data, and a cloud backup is updated at 10-minute intervals. The cloud database has no storage limit for maximum, average and turbulence wind speed data.

IP 67 Enclosure weather proof enclosure

The unit works with any voltage from 110V - 240V and has a rated power of only 5W. Having no battery, WINDCRANE mini is lightweight (0.9 kg) and easy to handle.

WINDCRANE mini can operate within a broad temperature range, from -20°C to 50°C.

WINDCRANE mini is designed to be installed in crane cabins but can be used outdoor too . It is intended for applications where wind monitoring is only required during operating hours.

WINDCRANE max

This product is intended for 24/7 monitoring or where the application requires monitoring other variables in addition to the wind. WINDCRANE can accommodate 4 anemometers, 2 wind vanes and up to 8 additional sensors as required by client, for a total of 14 separate inputs. This version of the product has all the features of WINDCRANE mini, plus the following:

With the additional features, unit weight is increased from 0.9 kg to 6 kg

The WINDCRANE max version is recommended when the unit must be installed outdoors, when 24/7 monitoring is required, or when a power supply is not always available. Its high impact weatherproof enclosure makes it suitable for the toughest applications.

All monitoring solutions by Logic Energy are factory configured for a Plug-and-Play installation. With our 10-year track record and expertise in both hardware and software, we deliver solutions that are sophisticated and accurate, but also user-friendly.
